Colombia Las Moras - Pitalito - Natural
Discover our Colombia Excelso Las Moras Natural, where spritzy white wine brightness and nectarine acidity lead the way, unfolding into sweet ripe lemon and cumquat. A boozy, coating mouthfeel carries tart tropical and stonefruit notes through to a lingering malt and chocolate finish. It’s a vibrant yet grounded cup, balancing lively acidity with depth and warmth — a standout expression of Huila’s natural process excellence.
The Natural Bean Journey
Grown between 1,700–1,900 meters above sea level in the renowned Pitalito region of Huila, Colombia, Las Moras reflects the area’s rich coffee heritage and ideal growing conditions. This lot brings together classic Colombian varieties, Caturra, Bourbon Amarillo, and Colombia, each contributing to the coffee’s layered complexity, sweetness, and structure.
At harvest, cherries are delivered to the processing station where they undergo a meticulous three-stage quality process. First, the cherries are washed and disinfected on arrival, removing immature fruit, leaves, and debris to ensure only the highest-quality cherries move forward. This careful selection sets the foundation for clarity and consistency in the cup.
Next, the cherries rest during a 24-hour oxidation period, allowing natural enzymes to enhance aromatic development before pulping. The coffee is then thoroughly rinsed, refining the flavour profile while preserving the expressive character developed during fermentation. Finally, the beans are mechanically dried in a controlled, homogeneous environment, stabilising moisture levels and locking in the coffee’s complex flavour structure.
The result is a high-scoring natural coffee with remarkable depth and balance, bright yet indulgent, structured yet expressive. Part of Lohas’ High Cup Score (HCS) Regionals, Colombia Excelso Las Moras is a confident showcase of Pitalito’s terroir and Colombia’s evolving natural processing craft.
